1. SOS Hand Crank Charging System
We can carry all the clever electronic devices we want but without chargers or electrical outlets, we might as well be carrying bricks. The SOS is one of those clever devices that we often find ourselves wondering why we didn’t think of it first. The answer of course usually comes down to the fact that we’re editors and not product engineers but that doesn’t mean this thing isn’t an amazing little device. It features:
• A Hand Crank Self-Powered Generator for Charging Cell Phones and Handheld Devices
• Super-Bright 3 LED Flashlight to Light the Way When You Need it Most
• Never Needs Batteries, No Bulbs to Replace, Instantly Generate Power
• Includes Universal USB Adapter and Cell Phone Charging Tips
• Compact Size & Lightweight, Non Slip Rubber Grip, Impact & Water Resistant
It even includes adapters for BlackBerry, Nokia, LG, Samsung, Motorola, Sony-Ericsson and other brands that utilize mini-USB or micro-USB inputs
